22 SEP 2026 · Michael, 42, was a former prosecutor and judge, chosen as Director of the Oregon Department of Corrections in 1987. On January 17, 1989, the night before he was to speak to the Oregon Senate about corruption he’d discovered, he was stabbed to death.Officials refused the theory that this had been a move to silence Michael, instead insisting he had been the victim of a car burglary.http://burglary.In 1991, 29-year-old petty criminal Frank Gable was railroaded into a no-parole life sentence for Michael Francke's murder. He spent the next 28 years incarcerated. In 2019, Gable's conviction was overturned, and he was exonerated, receiving a settlement of 1.9 million dollars, paid by the State of Oregon. This was after a federal appellate court found "significant investigative misconduct" by the State, as well as the exclusion of crucial evidence indicating another suspect in the murder.Now, almost 40 years after Michael Francke's murder, his unknown killer or killers remain free, and local journalist Phil Stanford has written a book about the murder, the wrongful conviction, and how Michael’s brother, Kevin, has been fighting for justice for all these years. “Who Killed Michael Francke- and How They Got Away with It” is available now. We will be interviewing Phil Stanford on the Murder in the Rain Podcast to discuss this case for an upcoming episode. While Michael Francke's murder remains unsolved, there doesn’t seem to be a specific agency handling the case. The Oregon State Police, in fact, has refused to reopen the investigation, which they initially led in 1991.If you have any information about Michael Franke’s murder on January 17, 1989, http://OregonCrimestoppers.org would be a good place to start, or you can email us at Murderintherain@gmail.com, and we can connect you with the case’s expert, Phil Stanford. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In this episode, Josh interviews journalist and author, Phil Stanford, about the infamous Michael Francke murder case.

8 SEP 2026 · A few weeks ago, we had a booth at Troutdale’s First Friday. I love being a booth bitch, Josh loves….helping me. While we’ve always had a good time at the bigger events, like CrimeCon, it was SO much fun speaking with our neighbors, talking about true crime. What was surprising, but shouldn’t have been, was how many people mentioned cases I had never heard of! Names and stories were coming at us left and right. It was during one of these conversations, with new friend of the show, Jill, we learned about a disturbing case I was shocked had never been on my radar. She asked if we knew about the young girl who had been thrown off a cliff into the Clackamas River. We hadn’t, and it piqued my interest. When I was first researching the case, I wasn’t sure there would be enough for an entire episode. Then, I kept pulling the thread and it led me down an unexpected path. What I thought would be a case about a young woman’s murder, led me to her heartbreaking background: which included another murder and a devastated mother left houseless. This is the story of the Spicer family.Photos and links to interviews and the GoFundMe are on our blog.Join Patreon for just $1 for bonus content not available anywhere else!

25 AUG 2026 · The word Vendetta originated in Italy and was related to clan-based feuds. The meaning expanded to acts committed in a feud before eventually meaning a prolonged series of retaliatory, vengeful, or hostile acts. Going back further, Vendetta traces back to the Latin verb “vindicta,” meaning vindication or revenge. So it comes as little surprise to learn the antagonist in today’s case was named Donald Vandetta. He didn’t care that his victim, Susan Reed, was with someone else or had told him she wanted to end things. He couldn’t see past his own wants and desires. Leading to a catastrophic outcome. A few months back, we received an email from listener Sarah. I’ll skip the compliments; while they are appreciated, anyone who knows me knows that’s not my love language. What she told me was that her great-aunt Phillis’ daughter Susan had been murdered in 1987 near a rail yard. Phyllis eventually passed, taking the information she knew about the case with her. Phyllis had attended the parole hearings for her daughter’s killer to make sure he stayed behind bars. Since Sarah wasn’t privy to case details, she wanted to carry the torch for Susan, but she didn’t have enough information to do so. I’ve since received the police reports about this case. While at first this appeared to be a lover scorned in an “if I can’t have you no one will” type of jealous rage, the investigation revealed much more. Susan sought help from friends and authorities. She tried to protect herself by asking for support. She told Donald no over and over again. Still, nothing could stop this man on his green-with-envy path of destruction.

2 JUN 2026 · In our last episode, I told you the stories of Elena Jacobs and Teresa Krause. How their bodies were found on Del Rey beach, 7 months after they disappeared from the Tongue Point Job Corps location, and that no one has been held responsible for their deaths. In this episode, I’ll still be focused on Del Rey Beach, but jumping ahead to 1988. That was when 15-year-old Dorene Raterman disappeared after going on a bike ride. Someone was held responsible, but was he the only responsible party?https://www.newspapers.com/image/1086364497/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BAnthony+Mullins%26%2334%3B (PHOTO) - https://www.classmates.com/siteui/yearbooks/4182934868?page=124 - http://Findagrave.comhttps://www.findagrave.com/memorial/176053463/dorene-marie-raterman - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180376534/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180771207/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180776061/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180550425/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180550459/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180550673/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1182235092/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180366118/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/tdn/name/almond-eastman-obituary?id=29442696 - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1086603961/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1086603976/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1172997382/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1174573319/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1172997534/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/442618890/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1086350325/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1181501615/ - https://www.newspapers.com/image/577313301/ - https://www.newspapers.com/image/821336892/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDoreen+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1172999611/?match=1&terms=Dorene+body+found - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180348370/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BDorene+Raterman%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/442624246/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BAnthony+Mullins%26%2334%3B+guilty - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1172964341/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BAnthony+Mullins%26%2334%3B+guilty - https://coastda.blogspot.com/2005/12/oregon-death-penalty.html - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1092468216/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BAnthony+Mullins%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1180637050/?match=1&terms=%26%2334%3BLinda+Benson%26%2334%3B - https://www.newspapers.com/image/1092967462/?terms=%26%2334%3BAnthony+Mullins%26%2334%3B

19 MAY 2026 · On April 9th, 2006, a memorial service was held at the entrance of Del Rey Beach on the Oregon coast. During that somber ceremony, there was an offer of comfort and closure for the families of Elena Jacobs, Teresa Kruse, and Doreen Raterman. Three crosses stood in the parking lot, instead of three young women. Over the next two episodes, I’ll be sharing the unsolved case of the double murder of Elena and Teresa, and the sort-of solved case of Doreen Raterman.

5 MAY 2026 · When multiple young women were found slain within days of each other in 1978, not much fuss was made as they were simply labeled as ‘prostitutes’. If these stories had made more than a blimp in local reporting, there might have been talks of a serial killer being on the loose, tormenting sex workers. But what’s scarier? One man taking out multiple women, or multiple men killing women as they please? Today I’ll be discussing the stories of Antoinette Carter, Dianna Kuhn, and Lisa McCauley.

20 APR 2026 · Welcome back to Murder in the Rain, where today we’ve got a gaggle of updates for you. One of which I’m extra excited about. Today I’ll be talking about new information in Kristin Tomlin’s case, how an artist in Seattle is honoring the victims of Gary Ridgway, a new documentary about Mulugeta Saraw, and how day parole was revoked for one of the murderers of Reena Virk. So let’s not waste any time and get to it!
